Happy 75th Birthday Cerrito Theater!

Cerrito Theater, ink & watercolor, 6x8"

The Cerrito Theater is having its 75th birthday celebration this week. It originally opened on Christmas Day in 1937 as an art deco "motion picture palace." It closed in the 1960s and was used as a furniture warehouse until a community group worked to bring it back to life as a theater in 2006.
